Passing through town and we eyed the Nordstrom Rack sign while traveling on Highway 101. We decided…read moreto stop since the Hubs needed a belt. We dropped in on a weekday early evening. It was located in a complex with other stores such as Cost Plus. The Nordstrom Rack interior was modern, clean and organized. A lot of square footage too. It had a large inventory. Not sure if this was the norm or just caught them on a good day after restocking. Hubs left empty handed. But not me. I scored. Bought a few Caslon brand tops at bargain prices. And we hopped back onto Highway 101. By the way, the shopping complex is across the street from the iconic Madonna Inn. A

Manager tells me well it's costume jewelry, well no **** Sherlock, but it should last longer than a week. After having to go to bat they advised they would return. Although it was well within the 40 day window they didn't want to because it was worn. Well sorry, you need to stand behind the quality of your product! Be very mindful of their return policy! If they don't stand behind their product and you used your credit card, go right to the credit card company! Horrible value for only lasting a couple wears. If you are looking for cheaper jewelry, TJ Maxx is a much better solution and lasts much longer!

"Hi i was just checking if you guys were open today?" she responded with "mmhmm" and straight up hung up on me. I went anyway because i was in the area and live out of town. When I went into the store neither employee greeted me and the store had racks everywhere you could barely get around , I've never seen it such a mess in all the years I have shopped here. I stood at the register for over 5 minutes and was being ignored I finally yelled out "can I please be helped?" The employee walked over to me totally annoyed and said "what do you need help with?" I told her i needed to exchange for a smaller size and she said "well did you want to find the items?" I said " you don't have them which is why I would like to order them" she was so rude and unhelpful. I came in to exchange item from a previous in store purchase my sales person was chaz they were extremely helpful and their customer service was amazing. I asked the employee if we could order online because i used $80 of rewards and my torrid cash. When ordering she said i had to pay more because it's online , I've shopped at many other locations and know that it can be overridden. She refused to do it so I said then I will just return everything then Im not gonna pay more for what I already purchased. I lost out on money because of the rewards i used but i don't even care I will never spend another dime at this location which is unfortunate because it's the only location in this area so I probably will never shop this brand again. Once i did the return and went to my car i checked to receipt and guess who the employee was? Deborah. She is the blondish one with glasses and short hair very rude. I've been in here before where she was trash talking other employees and the district manager she obviously hates her job and her whole attitude shows it. Makes it so unpleasant for customers , I've never met someone in customer service who is so rude.

Told me to throw the shipping box from my return of a .com order into a trash can out on the street! You aren't supposed to throw big bulky boxes into municipal trash cans on the street!

Other than that no comment on any of the merchandise I was looking at and talking with her about. Typical college student worker. Very sickening to think of paying $168 for a sweatshirt with an employee who cannot be bothered to do basic retail shop greeting and conversation.

Being that my 5 year old is rapidly outgrowing his clothing, I figured that I could score some great deals at Carter's. When I walked into the store, I was immediately greeted by an employee by the name of Aly. I informed Aly that I was looking for clothing for a 5 year old, and she pointed me to the appropriate section. I'm used to walking into outlet stores that look like they've been hit by a typhoon. However, this particular store was well organized. As I mentioned before, my son is growing really fast and pretty tall for his age. Therefore, I was a bit indecisive when it came to selecting clothes that would fit, but still give him some extra space to grow into. Aly not only pointed me to a collection of fashionable (keyword)pants that had an adjustable waistband, but she also suggested an appropriate size based on his height. Less than ten minutes later, I had selected a couple of items and was at the register ready to be rung up. To my delight, the items I selected were 40% off the tagged price (apparently I was so excited when I walked in that I failed to notice the huge 30%-50% off sale sign). To make matters even better, I realized that I had a coupon for an additional 20% off (Carter's occasionally emails these coupons when you make a purchase)! If you're looking to find some name brand children clothing without breaking the bank (and without spending a majority of your time sorting through disorganized clothing), check out the Pismo Beach Carter's Outlet store!
